I. Introduction
===============
This is an FAQ for Resident Evil 0. Don't mix it up with a walkthrough/FAQ.
This is simply an FAQ. It answers the most frequently asked questions about
this game. Many people may wonder why only write an FAQ. Well the answer
is
simple. These guides are easy to read and search. Unlike a full FAQ where
everything is described in vivid detail, and FAQ is usually spoiler-free,
and
tells you exactly what you need to know.
The best way to use this guide is to use the search function in your
Internet
browser. That way you can quickly find the place you're having trouble
with.
Every question that someone could have in the game is answered in here. I,
however, do not tell you when to save (except for on the train), or what
enemies to kill (other than bosses). That's because I feel like that's a
decision the player should make. If you think it's best to run from an
enemy,
do so. If you think it's best not to save, then don't save. That part of
the
game is left open to you.
Now enjoy this guide!
=============
II. The Train
=============
Q. I'm in the train, but don't know what to do next.
A. Start to walk to the front of the train. You'll encounter three zombies
in
the next car. Kill them and continue to the front of the train.
Q. I'm at the front of the train, and nothing is happening...
A. Examine the body.
Q. These dogs keep killing me. How do I kill them?
A. Stand your ground and don't move. As a dog comes jumping towards you,
shoot it. They take two handgun bullets to die.
Q. Now I need more bullets and herbs. Where do I get them?
A. Enter the cabin nearest to where you met Billy. Inside is a green herb
and
handgun bullets as well as a typewriter so you can save.
Q. Do I need anything else before I leave?
A. Make sure you grab all of the items out of the two cabins. You can leave
the ink ribbon behind, though. Since there is only one ave point in the
cabin, there is no reason to carry it around with you.
Q. Where is Billy?
A. He's at the back of the train. Head back there to find him.
Q. How do I kill this zombie?
A. You don't. Run back dowwnstairs, and Billy will come to save the day.
Q. Who is that robed man?
A. Keep on playing and you'll find out :)
Or you could just skip to the general FAQs section where most of the story
plot is clarified.
Q. Billy just killed the zombie, but now I'm stuck! What do I do next?
A. Go to the back of the car without Billy in your party, and climb up the
ladder. Connect the cables, and you'll be pushed down into a locked room.
Q. Oh great! Now Rebecca is stuck. I found a key, but can't do anything
with
it.
A. Send the key up the lift, and have Billy retrieve it in the kitchen.
This
key unlocks the locked door in the front car. Run up there, and make sure
you
kill the zombies on your way there.
Q. Where us the kitchen?
A. Go downstairs. It is the automatic door that opens right by the stairs.
Q. I have the key, but where do I use it?
A. Go to the first car and use it on the locked door.
Q. What items do I need inside this room?
A. There is a herb, but it can stay unless you are in serious need of
health.
Open the closet and grab the briefcase, then drop it. You'll need it later,
but not now. Now take the train map.
Q. Where do I go from here?
A. Flip the switch by the door to reveal a ladder leading to the second
story.
Q. I'm in the cabin upstairs. What do I need?
A. Make sure you grab the hunting gun, and ammo for both it and your
handgun.
You can come back for the rest later.
Q. Where do I find the ice pick?
A. Outside of the bar, and to the right of the door is the ice pick. You'll
need it.
Q. How do I kill this giant scorpion?
A. Equip the hunter's gun, and run up to it. Aim down and shoot. It will
occasionally knock you back, but Billy has a high tollerance for pain, and
it
will barely effect him. Four or five direct hits with the hunter rifle will
take care of him. Don't forget to grab the panel opener on your way down.
Q. What do I do with the ice pick?
A. Send it to Rebecca.
Q. Where do I use the panel opener?
A. Have Rebecca and Billy meet up again, and use the panel opener in the
corner of the kitchen by the refridgerator.
Q. What do I do with the gold ring?
A. Combine it with the briefcase.
Q. How do I release the hookshot?
A. Have Rebecca hold down on the lever while Billy retrieves it.
Q. Where do I use the hookshot?
A. Go to the car with the open window and stairs. Face the stairs and use
the
hookshot.
Q. What do I do with the jewelery box?
A. Open it and combine the silver ring with the briefcase, then open the
briefcase.
Q. Do I need the hookshot anymore?
A. Not now. Drop it.
Q. It has been a while since I've saved.
A. You're right. Go save!
Q. Why can't I enter the front door in the first car? I have unlocked it!
A. You need to have both players in your party.
Q. Where is the magnetic card?
A. It's on the table in the very front car. Grab it and run all the way to
the back of the train.
Q. Do I need to kill all of these zombies?
A. No. Just shoot them down so you can run past them
Q. How do I solve these number puzzles?
A. There are a total of four different number combinations, which are listed
below. Thanks to Randomguy1313@aol.com for informing me about these.
32: 4444444422
36: 4444444422
